Milton Wolf, the tea party candidate challenging Sen. Pat Roberts (R-KS), is asking the Kansas secretary of State to kick Roberts off the ballot for re-election because Roberts doesn’t have a home in Kansas.
Wolf’s campaign argues that Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach (R) is required to reject Roberts’ application under the U.S. Constitution, which requires that a senator “be an inhabitant of that State for which he shall be chosen.”
“When Senator Roberts files his paperwork later today, he will likely use the address [for] a single-family home in Dodge City where he claims to rent a bedroom. However, Senator Roberts doesn’t stay at that address,” the letter from Wolf’s campaign read. “When the owner was asked earlier this year how many times Senator Roberts has stayed at that address since he allegedly began renting the room in October 2013, he couldn’t remember.”
Wolf’s campaign has been relentless in trying to paint Roberts as a fake Kansas resident after The New York Times reported that Roberts does not own a home in the state and instead, when he needs to use a Kansas address, uses one for a residence owned by two donors to his political campaign.

Getting Robertson off the ticket is the one and only chance he has of winning, and that’s a full court shot at best.
This Tea Bag idiot has no chance at winning anything. He looks like one of Mitt Romney’s forlorn children.
So, is he saying no one who can’t afford two homes should serve in Congress or is he saying no one elected to Congress should actually go to Washington and serve?
Of course, baggernuts being what they, I guess he could be saying no one who can’t afford to maintain two homes should be elected and when elected, said person shouldn’t actually use the home in Washington.
Please proceed, sir.
But damn it all he has his flag pin on so your argument is invalid.
